Wow, I hate to disagree with a member of the dev team, as I REALLY REALLY REALLY admire the work you've all done on this emulator, but you CAN connect multiple clients to the same server over a LAN using minilogin. Using the setup I described above, it works fine. I am absolutely not kidding. I'm using v0.2.6, with the most recent EQ client.
Those who've talked with me before and used the stuff I've written will tell you that I don't say it unless it's true. The 30,000+ hits my website has had can attest to that (

Most of the people here have at one point or another probably used my old epic item database for EthernalQuest (the old database that allowed you to summon non-lore one-handed look-alikes of the epics that had book icons), or the cleaner I wrote for the autogenerated item databases there. I'll admit, I've not been active in EQ emulation for months now, but I'm back and I'd like to once again help others do fun things.
Seriously, folks, try the setup I described above and it WILL work. What's the harm in trying? 5 minutes of lost time?
And when it works for you, you'll love me
